I dont know how many of you guys get this mag. but this months issue of Super Street features a verry nice 240z With an amazing RB26DETT built to 600+ Hp with a Z32 trans... I found this to be a verry good artical, you guys might like it too.

sounds like that silver one i like so much, i dont see why they used a Z32 trans though, unless they went with a Z32 rear end i guess that would make stuff alil simplier.

 

z32 trans was done to get rid of the AWD trans mission that would require alot of modification, but its a good trans...

 

coulda used teh GTS trans its a 5speed skyline trans thats pretty strong as well, wouldnt require modification to fit and is RWD if you know much about skylines though. but w/e

 

yeah i went out and bought that issue. It's a hot car. But I usually stay away from SuperStreet. I dont like their writing style and layout

 

Ya h could have used the gts trans but if you read the artical he mentions the first clip he bought was crap and it was probly cheaper to get ahold of the Z32 trans than ordering another GTS model trany, plus if it ever blows it easyer to get ahold of the Z32 trans.

 

thats a good point, hmmm, wonder if there is an adapter plate or w/e he did to get teh Z32 tranny to fit, would be nice to know for future reference

 

Im willing to bet you could just modify the original bellhousing, the Z32 is a v6 so i would assume the bellhousing is a bit larger than that of a sraight-6, but thats jsut my guess... what would i know, I work on military trucks, and my friend back in the states is working on my Z, witch i might add is getting an
RB25DET put in it Muwhahahah! but the only import experiance i have is my old nissan sunny and my Z, but if i ever get sent back to the states ill get to work on my baby more.

For you people that like skylines though Germany is the place for you... I got a buddy over here that has an R33 GTR and we took it out on the Auto baun... it a good time, there are quite a few skylines over here, but just to let you know his skyline gets smoked buy our btl motor Sargents twin turbo 350z
